i got nothin' to say.

Seriously. Sometimes I question the validity of me having a fashion blog. I don't take fashion risks, or set trends. I don't take amazing street style pictures or have interesting opinions on runway shows. But I like fashion nonetheless, so I guess I'm just as entitled to a fashion blog as anyone. That being said, I have nothing to report. Well, thats not exactly true.

I took some pictures with my film camera recently, I think they were color, but I don't remember. I am excited to get them developed, which will occur as soon as I figure out how to say that in Chinese.

My hair is driving me crazy. I have split ends like nobody's business, and my bangs have grown out alarmingly quickly to be this lump on my face, which needs some sort of shaping/trimming. I am just scared to get a haircut in Taiwan cause I might be like "take off an inch" and they cut it all off! I have ridiculously long hair at the moment, and I'm thinking I'll tone it down a bit so I don't look like a crazy old lady. I've just gotta layer it more. Or chop it all off. I am torn between those.

And...that is all. Time for European history homework.

Thanks if you got to the end of this!

the nightmarket

Kendra drinking this tea that comes in a liter cup...strange?

Me eating this thing that is strawberries on a stick coated in sugar. Yum. Iris wants some, you can tell.

I went to the night market this weekend, which was very interesting. Its a very Taiwanese thing, but also a very new and modernized thing. Its basically like all these stalls and cheap clothing and interesting food. We took sticky-pics, these little pictures with little hearts and sparkles on them. VERY Asian. Anyways, thought I would post these.

Some people just don't get me...

shirt from Urban Outfitters, skirt and tights from Nordstrom, Hunter wellies.

So today I went out for a few hours with my sister then my friends around our neighborhood. I woke up at 11 and left at around 11:10, so I think its impressive that I even managed to look presentable when i went out. Lately I have been wearing lots of mismatching colors and ridiculous patterns. I have been asked if i do this on purpose, but I actually don't. I have been more focusing on shape and fit of clothes than the colors being all matching. Its weird to me when a color repeats itself more than two times in an outfit. So SOMEONE *cough cough jane cough* told me that my outfit did not match at all, plus a whole heap of other drivel that I ignored while eating a rice triangle wrong. She pointed this out too. So now I am going to be wearing EVEN MORE mismatching colors and patterns to annoy you dearie. Just you wait.

Also, apparently nobody wears wellies in Taiwan. This concerns me, cause it rains ALL THE TIME. Do people just let their feet get wet? Maybe if I wear mine enough, people will get their usefulness.

fishtail

I was thinking about this hairstyle today and ended up doing it on like 5 people, but I wanted to do one on me since I have really long hair. It turns out its not so difficult. Sorry the image is so bad. My camera is kinda...not good.

double outfit post

Looking super intense, lawl. I was going for a kind of aremy punk look. Vintage boots, gap cardigan, gap t-shirt, nrodstrom jeans, necklaces: vantage and forever 21

In this on im wearing the same gap cardigan, a vintage belt, target shorts, and an urban outfitters t-shirt.

And my room! I am so excited because it is mostly done being unpacked, and I really like the way it turned out.

Winter, c'mon

And then I changed my mind

Were going out to dinner in a few minutes, so I didnt feel like wearing a long, flowy, purple skirt in public, plus I was feeling more...edgy? Thats almost comical coming from me, but i watched the girl with the dragon tattoo last night, so I feel very hardcore. And I put this on. The picture is kinda bad, but it...showcases? the feeling of the outfit best. And now i sound all snobby and pretentious. Just trust me guys, the other pictures suck. Tank top: target; Cardigan; Urban Outfitters; jeans: nordstrom; boots; Goodwill

This is my guilty conscience post

Hey guys,

So I've been feeling guilty since I haven't been posting anything but polyvore sets for the last month. Also, I just yelled the hell out of my sister for no good reason...but I apologized. So anyways, I took a picture of my outfit today, and it is a Saturday kind of outfit, cause I lack the balls to wear this kinda thing to school. Which, speaking of, is a whole separate rant (next post guys). Then i felt like finding any and all the pictures i have taken of outfits or my friends have taken in the last tree or so months. So here goes. From Facebook:

hmmm... pardon the size discrepancy...and also the manical faical expression.I'm a strange duck. in the little one i'm wearing a Nordstrom cardigan and tank top. in the big one its the same cardigan and an american apparel skirt and urban outfitters t-shirt.

This one is actually from a photo shoot I modeled for my friend, and its not my dress or hat, but the dress is the makeup person's and its Rodarte for Target. I LOVE THIS DRESS AND WILL OWN IT SOMEDAY.

This amazing picture was taken by my dear-darling friend Elizabeth, and I'm wearing her dress and I think my other friend Sinead's shirt and definitely her scarf. And those are 3-D movie glasses, folks. I'm just keepin' it real.

This is an awesome boutique I found in section seven, this famed factory reject/ knockoff street in Tain Mu. This place is actually much higher- end than the other stores there. It is still pretty affordable though, and carries one size and one copy of a piece of clothing, mostly from Korean brands. And of course, it's all tiny Asain sizes. I fit some of it, but I was short on cash on the day I visited, so I got this awesome grey scarf in lieu of some dress or shirt. This was a while ago, so I don't remember perfectly.

This was at our uber chic little boutique hotel we stayed at until our apartment was done being renovated. We liked it...thats an understatement. There was a TV over our jacuzzi tub, people! And a free mini-bar. We were practically in tears when we had to leave. But ANYWAYS! I'm wearing a Papaya dress as a vest, a Calvin Kline tank top, and an American Apparel skirt.

And, finally, todays outfit. I started out wearing overalls and a blue t-shirt, but it was not meant to be. :) I decided that I wanted something more girly to wear, and so: viola! Tank top: Target; belt: vintage; skirt: hand-me-down.

And there you have it, folks, my last few months in review...but not really. Hahaha. Enjoy!

Winter, we have a date...in three months

And Rebecca, I promise I'm not doing this just to spite you!!
